RE: Do you take advice from BROKE people?(join the discussion, even if you're broke) VLOG
I was raised that you don't discuss how much money you really have. You give what you can when you can but you always start with close to home. I have always been good about ignoring naysayers and proving them wrong and just doing my thing. But I like Dory's Motto "Just Keep Swimming" cause if you do you will get to where you are going, it is when you stop that you fail.
PREACH ::black prayer hands:: lol
I love what you say about ignoring naysayers and just doing your thing. We're dealing with that during our homeschool endeavor. The unsolicited advice is coming from the worst places.
I had one of the grandma's threaten to call CPS on me for home schooling. I know the law and you can't use CPS to harass people into doing what you want. And if someone calls and makes false allegations against you over and over again you can sue them for using the state to harass you.
I told her if she did I would cut her out of the kids lives and that I would sue her for making false allegation of educational neglect. And that I would win because if they tested the kids now it would just show that Public school was failing my son, my girls would have passed any test given at that time.
Fast forward my oldest is 21 owns her own home free and clear and has her own family now. My middle child is a Freshman at Purdue University studying to be a chemist. And my son is in his senior year about to graduate and doing game reviews on Steemit and want to eventually develop games himself. He has some really great ideas. One thing my kids have learned through out the years is to think outside the box, because when you box yourself in, you lock yourself in. When you are outside the box you are free. Oh and grandma is 100% supportive of homeschooling now. Sometimes seeing is believing, just ignore the naysayers they won't understand till they see the difference.
sidenote... what is his username?
I think we did this once before he goes by @ultrawing
yeah on my wife's post and I never checked back. Got it now. Thanks
LOL Sometimes he doesn't want to do them but he is because I am making it 10% of his grade and right now he has a straight A average and if he misses that 10% it could ruin his perfect 4.0 lol At least he takes he studies serious
Here is something that I hope brightens your day
